Product Description
The much-anticipated new book in the number 1 bestselling Monk series, a compelling and timely fable about living your best life in these complex times
Published in over 46 languages, with more than five million copies sold, The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari has touched people around the world. Published to coincide with the fifteenth anniversary of the very first The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari book, Robin Sharma has written a powerful and moving fable that will resonate with readers now and for years to come.
When the now-famous character of Julian Mantle falls ill, he sends his nephew on an international adventure to retrieve Julian’s mementoes and secret letters—writings that reflect what Julian has learned over many years about living a remarkable life, a collection that may become his legacy. A moving and fascinating journey from the Bosphorus River in Turkey to a remote fishing community in India to the catacombs of Paris, The Secret Letters of the Monk Who Sold His Ferrari offers transformational lessons for happiness and true success and shows readers how to live an authentic and meaningful life.

(What's this?)
This is quite a nice, short, self help book a bit like Paulo Corrello's The Alchemist. The moral of this story being that what's important in life are family and friends, so don't waste your time with the superficial.
Money, status, possessions - these things are not important in life and while they bring you momentary satisfaction and short term fulfilment, they won't bring you happiness.
The book was a nice story and easy to read, and when read at the right time by the right person, can help put things in perspective. These type of books are never going to win any prizes or recognition as great works, but they do serve a purpose and are great as a little pick me up if your felling down.

Format:Paperback|Amazon Vine™ Review
(What's this?)
Inspirational, quasi educational, quasi religious books have become popular over the last 10 years as we become more "feeling" aware. This book is a variation on this familiar theme and will undoubtedly appeal to those new to the genre but perhaps less so to those familiar with it. Not having read any of the author's previous books this one does not tempt me to.

(What's this?)
I put off getting this book for a while, not sure whether I would like it or not, but in my pursuit to read at least a book a week in 2012 I thought I would give it a whirl.
I have never read Robin Sharma before, but have heard of him and thought I would try a different genre.
I was really interested in the first few pages, it sounded like it was about me! However I found the ease in which the character accepted the huge task he was faced with and the lack of questioning by an intelligent man a tad bizarre.
I did however find the book a fast and easy read and I did take away some of the points being made, particularly in relation to fear!
Would I read another one.......probably not.

the monk who sold a movie?
This reads a bit like a treatment for a film yet to be made. What it lacks in narrative momentum it makes up for in vaguely uplifting little messages. Read more

Typical robin sharma book but with a commercial motive!
I have read other books of robin sharma and this book defintely seems to have a commercial motive! The story is not that griping and the author keeps beating around the bush -... Read more

Good
A good book which is well written and flows very easily. It reminded me a little of the Celestine Prophecy but it was not as well put together as the Celestine Prophecy. Read more

Feels like a film script
Ok - so its not a bad book, but then again it isn't a page turner.
The title intrigued me and I do enjoy travel books, but somehow this isn't quite there. Read more

Nice idea; didn't love it
This book is a nice idea: not exactly original in its format, it is nevertheless not a bad example of its genre of wisdom writings encased in story. Read more

Special
I adored this book, I wasn't sure what to expect and had read nothing else by the author, was expecting something from the mind, body spirit genre and this is what I got. Read more

Important Message but No Great Revelations
This book uses a format which is hardly unique. That is it tells a story, almost a little morality tale, and blends in various universal truths or lessons. Read more
